This guide is about how the Caller ID (the phone number shown to the callee when agents make outgoing calls) can be configured on the Velvetel Portal by using the CallFlow application. It can be done in the following sections according to the hierarchy

  • Account

  • User

  • Device

Account level is the default one. If there is a need to configure additional Caller ID settings it can be done at the User. If the Caller ID is set on the Device level, this setting will be applied. If there is no Caller ID at any level, the Device Name will be used as Caller ID.
